I'm writing a sentence and I'm not sure if I should include a full stop after the abbreviation ETC. I want to know if it's necessary to put a full stop after ETC in a sentence. Does ETC need a full stop?

For instance, if "etc." is used in the middle of a sentence, it still requires a period after it.

The period indicates that the list or enumeration has been abbreviated and that there are other items that could be included.
